This work examines the motivations that underlie the inter-country allocation of Australian bilateral aid to developing countries. Time series and cross section data on overseas aid are used to analyze aid motivations. This book makes theoretical and several empirical contributions to the area, and new econometric literature on tests on non-tested hypotheses have been applied.
